installed and you should see in the following screen my ubuntu linux
partitons hda3,hda4.

Personally, if I still used Windows I would use
EXT2 IFS,
since this allows you to mount your Linux filesystem as a real Windows
drive (including the capability to write to it, although readonly is an
option too), complete with a drive letter and the ability to access it
from ANY Windows program
